We developed an IT education teaching plan or used in an information and computers unit of 9th grade (3rd year Junior High) Industrial Arts & Home Economics that introduces topics from multiple subjects and incorporates learning content that increases learner motivation and can be tied to other subjects with clear objectives for application. Quantitative analysis of the effects of this teaching approach on student motivation showed that the motivation scores were high for the three scale items of occurrence of cognitive conflict, stimulation of intellectual curiosity and degree of association in the subjects of Math, Science, and Social Studies. Analysis of differences of subjects showed that scores for stimulation of intellectual curiosity were higher in Science compared to Math and Social Studies. Qualitative analysis suggested that students experienced a deeper understanding of subject matter in the process of entering data and generating graphs on their own to answer a specific question rather than simply interpreting finished graphs and distribution maps as they would in a standard class.
